All cyclists face the same problem – where do you store your bikes when you’re not using them? If you have a garage, that’s fine, but many people don’t and are forced to keep their bikes indoors. Chilean designer Manuel Rossel  has come up with a different solution.

Chol1, designed by Rossel, is a line of unique furniture that doubles as bike storage space. Instead of leaving bikes in hallways,  users can slot their bikes on top of bookshelves, onto a platform behind the sofa, or on an angular stand. Without the bikes, the pieces look like ordinary, minimalistic modern furniture.

Chol1 is currently only available in Chile, and with cycling continuing to grow in popularity in the UK, the designs are perhaps something to take inspiration from.
